This week Disney Cruises revealed more looks at its new Disney Destiny and just how big Marvel’s presence will be for MCU fans of all ages once sailings start later this year. Fan favorites Black Panther and Spider-Man will be making appearances alongside a trickster villain variant Loki. And as far as Marvel experiences go we’re looking forward to the Sanctum, a lounge bar inspired by the offices of one Doctor Strange.

Also this week: Universal Studios Hollywood’s Fan Fest Nights outlined how cosplay will work at the event for fans of Star Trek, Wicked, One Piece, and Dungeons & Dragons, among the fandoms represented. As more Pop Mart and Robo Shop locations spring up, Labubu is set to debut a new colorful drop with “Big Into Energy” nationwide. Plus Sinners hits theaters and we have a guide to finding venues screening Ryan Coogler’s latest as it’s meant to be seen.

Black Panther leads the Avengers aboard the Disney Destiny

Disney Imagineering gave a look at the process for the incredible Black Panther statue being built for the atrium of Disney Cruise Line’s latest ship, the Disney Destiny. It’s themed to heroes and villains, so it makes sense to have Black Panther front and center to greet cruisers. It also features Spider-Man on the stern. There will be a huge MCU presence aboard this ship for kids and adult superhero fanatics.

Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum… as a bar

Here’s a look at some of the libations that will be featured in the Disney Destiny‘s Sanctum lounge, which like the themed bars on other Disney ships inspired by Star Wars and The Haunted Mansion will include deep immersive elements as part of the experience. The space will resemble Strange’s office and we wonder if there will be a bar top effect where your beer gets refilled just like Thor’s did in the movies.

Meet superhero Minnie alongside Marvel faves

Can we talk about how this is a really fierce look for Superhero Minnie? It’s almost like she’s a part of the Marvels line up and a picture with her, Carol, Kamala, and Monica would be amazing. As far as actual MCU characters confirmed to be on the Disney Destiny, expect to meet Spider-Man and Black Panther with more announcements to come.

Heroic Bites with Edna Á La Mode Sweets and Marvel Dining

The Incredibles get a perfectly named treat stop inspired by the iconic Edna Mode, and there better be ice cream á la mode with no capes because it’s what Edna would want. And it appears that’s a high possibility with a menu that boasts handmade gelato, ice cream, and more along with specialty treats prepped from Edna Mode’s lab.  We see those suited up Incredibles cupcakes and look forward to a ton of Jack-Jack Cookie Num Nums.

And as previously featured aboard other cruises, the Worlds of Marvel dining experience will also be offered aboard the Disney Destiny, with a Groot and Rocket takeover. Guests can expect an awesome mix of food and superhero antics courtesy of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Coachella gets geeky with Rock Opera Gaga, L.A. Phil, and Yo Gabba Gabba!

If you’re venturing out to the desert and happen to also be a nerd, we hope to see you via livestream at Yo Gabba Gabba!‘s set, which will feature Paul Williams and Weird Al for an encore of their “Rainbow Connection” remix with Portugal the Man. Cinema fans will also enjoy Gustavo Dudamel and the LA Phil performing Star Wars scores. And as probably the most gothic horror camp headliner ever, Lady Gaga is going to unleash more rock opera goods. If you’re going to be in that crowd or really any be sure to keep your ear drums safe with plugs like Loops, which kept ours safe when we went a couple years ago. This year we’ll be tuned in to Coachella live on YouTube.

Meet The Wizard of Oz’s Dorothy Gale and Glinda in Abu Dhabi

From April 5 through May 11 you can meet The Wizard of Oz‘s Glinda and Dorothy at WB World at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. It’s a truly unique experience as we do not have a Warner Bros. park in the states that can use its version of the Oz witches in parks unless Six Flags pulls a bold move. Nevertheless this show includes Dorothy performing “Over the Rainbow” which is really neat.
